"THE MOMENT IS NOW FOR BRADY, PATS" is the headline of patsfans.com

followed with the excerpt......

"...if they take care of business, they could be potentially poised to start making a run toward being a potential contender"

So let me get this straight, they have the potential to be a potential contender?

HAHAHAHA.

That is so confusing. I think it means that if they win, they'll have the potential to potentially make a claim to be a potential contender?

I thought the Patriots had already established themselves as contenders. At least potential contenders.

They could have the potential.
If they take care of business.
Then they could have potential.
To be poised.
To start.
To make a run toward.
Being a potential.
Contender.
Maybe.

Hey, it's in black and white. What's not clear?
You can get stats from Reiss. You come here for clear opinion.

Good catch. Thanks for calling me on it. Well that's what you get when you self-edit I suppose....i'll go clean it up and make it definitive.

Let's just say that it's a definite maybe.

If you're going to start playing grammar policeman perhaps you should start with your own thread title.
